Hey from Australia! YFM250B 91

[Dabrowski_1]

Hey All, just a quick hello and look forward to being part of the forum. 

recently picked up this 91 YFM250B from a farm in Victoria, melbourne Australia for $650. It had a dead battery but i did get a video of it running before i brought it. Problem was that it had a severe backfire through the carb. 
Anyways, the last 3 weeks ive been spending hours a day getting it back to running perfectly. 

here's what I've had to fix so far;
- Couldnt get the timing marks to line up, stretched chain!
- someone had been into the carb in the past becuase the float was upside down, aso was leaking fuel quite badly
- airbox was missing the cage, so i brought a complete K&N unit
- Swingarm bearings were destroyed!!! What a sage to get the swingarm bolts out!!!! all cleaned up and ready for installation
- currently working on the front end becuase there is a bit of play in the bearings

just waiting on some parts from yamaha and ill be able to fire it up and see if all is working well.

Welcome to QUADCRAZY! Looks like a fun project. Good deal if you don't have to put too much money into it.
